Walk through a valley where palms soar 60 meters high, taller than any other palm species on Earth. You'll hike misty trails surrounded by giant wax palms, cross wooden bridges over rushing streams, and spot Colombia's national tree in its only natural habitat.

Fatti rapidi: Quelle imponenti palme possono raggiungere fino a 60 metri di altezza, rendendole le specie di palma più alte del mondo. Ogni albero può vivere per oltre un secolo, con il suo caratteristico tronco rivestito di cera che lo protegge dagli agenti atmosferici.

Punti salienti: Le palme di cera qui sono reliquie viventi del periodo Giurassico, rimaste praticamente immutate per 200 milioni di anni. Stare tra di loro sembra di fare un salto in un mondo preistorico, con la nebbia che si diffonde nella valle mentre le palme ondeggiano venti piani sopra la tua testa.
